In-form Demons look to tame Lions and seal play-off place

UCD DEMONS can copper-fasten their play-off hopes if they beat Limerick Lions in the NIVEA for MEN SuperLeague at the Mardyke Arena tonight on the back of what has been a great couple of weeks for the Cork club.

Normally Demons would be in the grip of cup fever at this time of year but, after a tumultuous first half to the season they are happy to be challenging for SuperLeague honours after two important wins over their near-neighbours, Neptune, and a spectacular victory over Ballina last weekend.

Abrakebabra Tigers, runaway leaders all season, are on course for the double following last weekend’s thrilling semi-final win over UCD/Marian and now UCC Demons are in second position with a place in the play-offs virtually assured.
